1. Reply that you wish to take part, and I will pick four of your icons.2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee!

1. smallville: lady luthor

One of my own creations. I got this from a model-shot of Kristin Kreuk, the actress that plays Lana Lang in Smallville. There was something about her pose here: dark and compelling that really makes me think of Lady Luthor, not Lana Lang. On the technical side, it took me forever to get the right tint and even longer, to get that little spot of light just right.

2. cartoon: castle perilous

lol! I’ll probably change this icon one of these days. It’s a screenshot from the Alladin movie of the Sultan’s castle after it’s been invaded by Jafar, and gone ‘dark side’. In the original story I’ve been writing for years now, there is a Castle Perilous and this has been my visual image of that place for as long as I can remember. Speaking technically, I really don’t like the coloring of this icon. It’s more pinkish and less crimson red than I would like.

3. agatha christie: poirot

I am a huge Christie fan and I’ve loved Hercule Poirot, that conceited, finicky genius of a dandy since forever. There has never been, nor will there ever be, a character like Christie’s Poirot.

4. robin: maid marion

This was a screen shot of Marion’s introduction in the TV show. After many years of fond childhood memories, I bought the DVD last year and realized that my memories were a bit gilt-edged. :P

Mmm, did you do any lighting effects for Lady Luthor? Her face definitely looks really pale and creepy. Your castle perilous reminds me of Mario, for some reason. Mmm, it is pinkish, but that definitely adds to the peril of it all. I've never read Christie, but I gota say, your Hercule Poirot's got the best-looking mustache. It's got some sweet charactor. and I love the glow on Maid Marion; though I've just learned recently that it's such a 70s thing... haha.

I really like the shading on the Lade Luthor one. Evil Lana FTW! :p And I thought that looked like the palace from Aladdin. The pinkish effect is pretty creepy in itself. *g* I love Poirot so much, with his grey cells and his egg-shaped head. And poor old Hastings, always a bit slow on the uptake, but you know Poirot loves explaining his genius to an appreciative audience. :D

*g* OK, I'm no longer going to keep pretending to be Internet savvy... What does FTW mean? :P

*hugs Poirot* When I was younger, I thought I was going to marry him! :D
